Thaumcraft is a Minecraft mod that effectively turns the player into a thaumaturge; a magician with the ability to draw magical power from physical objects and can reshape them to perform a wide variety of 'miracles.' These miracles can be anything, from powering magic symbols, enchanting items with special properties, or even reverting objects back into different forms of matter.

If you’ve ever wanted to play a mod that allows you to experience the realistic life of a wizard trying to survive, Thaumcraft delivers the ultimate fantasy.

Reshape Your World

With the ability to turn physical objects into magical energy called ‘Vis,’ this mod gives new meaning to the idea of unlimited possibilities. Conduct research to gain more insight into the nature of Vis, and perform wonders the likes of which only a wizard could do:

Turn common metal into gold.

Levitate

Move objects through dimensions.

Create golems to do your bidding.

Summon magical bees.

All this and more help to enhance your Minecraft experience.

An In-Depth Crafting System

In Thaumcraft, there are 50 different types of Vis that are used to create a wide variety of spells and items. By transforming a normal cauldron into a crucible, you gain access to the basic abilities of a thaumaturge. Craft new magically enhanced weapons and armor such as, but not limited to:

Thaumaturge’s Robes

Sword of the Zephyr

Axe of the Stream

Pickaxe of the Core

Goggles of Revealing

Wand of Frost

Wand of Lightning

Experiment with combining items, and you may just stumble onto a new exciting creation.

Advanced Mining

In the Thaumcraft mod for Minecraft, one of the items you can make is called an ‘Arcane Bore.’ This device fires a laser in the direction you point it at a max distance of 64 blocks. Anything it comes into contact with will automatically be collected and turned into Vis. Craft multiple bores, and create your own quarry while looking down at your land high atop your floating tower.

New Resources, Enemies, and Devices

The following list is also just a portion of the additions this mod adds to your base game:

Greatwood

Silverwood

Enchanted Fabric

Thaumium

Angry Zombies

Wisps

Firebats

Hungry Chests
